Ivy Nile advances in WWE Speed tournament

With less than a second to spare, Ivy Nile defeated Maxxine Dupri to advance to the next round of the current WWE Speed number one contender’s tournament.

The two faced off in a first-round matchup that premiered on Speed today. Dupri started fast but lost control of the match when Nile caught a kick and dropped her with a clothesline. Nile then threw Dupri into the barricade outside and suplexed her onto the floor. She kept the advantage until a back-and-forth in the closing stretch. Dupri hit a superplex, did The Worm into an elbow drop, and then hit a crossbody — but Nile rolled through and secured the pinfall just before the three-minute time limit expired.

The match was taped before Raw in Louisville, Kentucky this Monday and can be watched below:
